02/22/2016 EN (English US) 2/14

Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Do not attempt to open or dissect a primer, as it may explode causing projectiles dangerous to the eyes, skin and body. Keep in original factory packaging and trays provided ONLY – DO NOT STORE IN BULK.

Other Hazards Other Hazards Not Contributing to the Classification: Lead and barium are toxic metals that may be released during the firing of primers. Care should be taken in the cleaning of range facilities to minimize the exposure potential to lead and barium. Persons engaged in these activities should wear protective clothing with an appropriate respirator. Range operators should consult OSHA 1910.1025 for details pertaining to the handling of lead in the work environment. Severe lead intoxication has been associated in the past with sterility, spontaneous abortion, and stillbirth. Exposure to lead can aggravate pre-existing anemia, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and conditions related to the gastrointestinal, reproductive, renal (kidney), and central nervous systems. Accidental Injury From Fired Cartridge: Fired ammunition can create serious injury, possibly both entrance and exit wounds. To avoid serious injury, use ammunition only in good condition and originally chambered for a particular caliber. Always keep the barrel free of any obstruction. If the gun fails to fire, a delayed firing may occur, or the gun may fire upon being opened. Keep gun muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Wait 30 seconds. Avoid exposure to breech. Carefully unload. A fired bullet has an extremely long range and can cause serious injury or death. Always be sure of the backstop, and practice safe muzzle control at all times. Avoid firing at surfaces.

*The hazardous components of this product are encased within the primer and are unlikely to be released under normal handling conditions. Therefore, the health and environmental hazards associated with certain components do not apply to the product overall. **It is suspected that nickel causes cancer and damage to the respiratory tract via inhalation. Because this product is in massive form, it is unlikely that respiration is a potential route of exposure. Therefore, the hazards usually associated with nickel do not apply to this product. The ecotoxicological information applies to the materials encased within the product. Full text of H-phrases: see section 16

SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES Description of First Aid Measures General: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. Inhalation: When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. IF INHALED: Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Drench affected area with water for at least 15 minutes. Call a POISON CENTER/doctor/physician if you feel unwell. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical attention. Ingestion: Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical advice and attention if you feel unwell.


02/22/2016 EN (English US) 3/14

Most Important Symptoms and Effects Both Acute and Delayed General: Toxic if swallowed, in contact with skin or if inhaled. Projectiles from fired cartridges can cause puncture wounds. When cartridges are fired or otherwise discharged, dust, vapors, and/or fumes may be absorbed by the digestive system and can result in both acute and chronic overexposure. Ingestion of a complete primer can cause irritation to the digestive system, and possibly other unknown health effects.

Inhalation: Fatal if inhaled.

Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation.

Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation.

Ingestion: Toxic if swallowed.

Chronic Symptoms: May damage fertility. May damage the unborn child. May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure.

Indication of Any Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment Needed If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).

SECTION 5: FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES Extinguishing Media

Special Hazards Arising From the Substance or Mixture

Advice for Firefighters Precautionary Measures Fire: Do not breathe fumes from fires or vapors from decomposition. Firefighting Instructions: Perform a risk assessment before engaging in offensive firefighting operations. Unless life safety risk or significant risk of property loss is present, consider taking defensive posture, protecting exposures and maintaining safe distance until material is consumed. For further information see the video “Ammunition and the Fire Fighter” by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute (SAAMI). Protection During Firefighting: Firefighters should wear full protective gear when fighting or downwind of initial fire. Hazardous Combustion Products: Metal oxides. Nitrogen oxides. Carbon oxides (CO, CO2).

Reference to Other Sections Refer to section 9 for flammability properties.

SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures

General Measures: Avoid skin and eye contact. Do not breathe dust or fumes. Remove ignition sources. No naked lights. No smoking. Evacuate danger area. Do not allow product to spread into the environment. For Non-Emergency Personnel Protective Equipment: Use appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE). Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel. For Emergency Personnel Protective Equipment: Equip cleanup crew with proper protection. Emergency Procedures: Ventilate area.

Environmental Precautions

Avoid release to the environment.

Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up

For Containment: Contain and collect as any solid. Use only non-sparking tools.

Suitable Extinguishing Media: DO NOT FIGHT FIRES INVOLVING EXPLOSIVES. Water may be applied through fixed extinguishing system (sprinklers) as long as people need not be present for the system to operate. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: DO NOT fight fires involving explosives.

Fire Hazard: May ignite if heated to 250°F (121°C) causing projection of metal fragments. Mass explosion will not occur in factory packaging. LOOSE PRIMERS OUTSIDE OF FACTORY PACKAGING CAN MASS DETONATE. Hazardous chemical and toxic by-products from chemical decomposition may be formed during fire. These products vary depending on fire conditions and other combustibles present during fire. These may include smoke, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen and lead fumes. Complete ventilation of structure is recommended. Explosion Hazard: Explosive. Explosion risk in case of fire. Unpackaged primer detonations can propagate causing simultaneous detonation of surrounding primers resulting in a violent explosion. Reactivity: May detonate with friction, impact, and heat.


02/22/2016 EN (English US) 4/14

Methods for Cleaning Up: DO NOT SWEEP SPILLED PRIMERS INTO A PILE. Spray spilled primers with a water/detergent mixture. Do not allow primers to become dry. Collect in original trays or submerge in oil.

Reference to Other Sections See heading 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection.

SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling Additional Hazards When Processed: Do not breathe decomposition products. Lead containing compounds are released during the firing of primers. Projectiles from fired cartridges can cause puncture wounds. Remove cartridges from service if any of the following conditions have occurred: corrosion, physical damage, exposure to oil or spray type lubricants. Hygiene Measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water before eating, drinking, or smoking and again when leaving work. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Do no eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Conditions for Safe Storage, Including Any Incompatibilities Technical Measures: Do not subject to mechanical shock. Storage Conditions: KEEP IN ORIGINAL CONTAINER. Store in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep container closed when not in use. Keep in fireproof place. Incompatible Materials: Strong acids. Strong bases. Strong oxidizers. Storage Area: Store locked up.
